Welcome to the site. You will find lots of great advice here. If you decide to use epoxy, you should definitely check out Raka products. I have used this extensively for my project. Its easy to work with and is just a great product for a good price. The six gallon kit is $288 which works out to $48 per gallon. If you are doing your transom, you will need the six gallon kit. I've used about 9 or 10 gallons so far but did my transom and recored every hatch, rehabed the console and have made countless smaller repairs in my 20' sf. Good luck and great boats!
